Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-13153:
----------------------------------------
Since cyclic replication topologies are supported today I think we'd need that
handled for the bulk load case too or it will lead to subtle and not so subtle
problems for users.
A crazy idea: rather than have bulk load tooling produce only HFiles for
replication, why not HFiles for the local cluster and ready made WALs to queue
up for replication? Of course that's going to have some drawbacks too but I
think fewer.

> Currently we plan to use HBase Replication feature to deal with disaster
> tolerance scenario.But we encounter an issue that we will use bulkload very
> frequently,because bulkload bypass write path, and will not generate WAL, so
> the data will not be replicated to backup cluster. It's inappropriate to
> bukload twice both on active cluster and backup cluster. So i advise do some
> modification to bulkload feature to enable bukload to both active cluster and
> backup cluster
